Thanks Ryan.

At the moment I've got a couple of cars but nothing that's running. I don't have the time to do anything for myself at the moment so it gets pushed to the back.

The R33 has never beenade elligability for 2A. Duncan was trying to get them homologated but I believe racing evidence was difficult to find.

Custom made alloy strut brace up for grabs, was made up for an aristo but customer changed their mind.

Fabricated from 6061 3mm alloy plate, two U shaped halves welded together with a solid 3mm plate bottom. slight curve in the bar 5mm rise in the center, unwelded on the top side in the center to give a neat looking gap down the middle

Machined 6061 alloy circular ends welded to the ends.

Base plates made from 6061 which are being redone at the moment to suit a skyline R32 or R33.

Going for $330 inc gst and postage to anywhere in aus.

New oil surge tank ive been developing.

post-20349-0-31546100-1356684938_thumb.jpg

Will those baffles use foam like the mines ones or something else?

I wish i had even a tenth of the talent you have, all your work is amazing!

Will contact you soon in regards to getting a powersteer resevoir similair to the one you did in that r32 with the electric setup.

Edited by k_d

Thanks for the compliments.

It's only practice and patience.

Yeah they are designed to use foam similar to the mines ones but with people using E85 and having E85 in oil and what not I'm getting some better quality foam cut to fit them properly

Here is something ive been working on for some time. This is the 3rd one to be fabricated but the first Ive taken photos of.

Its an oil surge tank specific for the R33.

Basic principal is same as a Fuel system.

9L sump feeds an external scavenge pump

Scavenge stage of the pump is used to fill this tank

Main pressure stage draws from the bottom of the tank via a funnel and internal baffle system

Pressure stage provides engine oil pressure

obviously there has been alot of small things to test and change as the system was developed.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
